Title: Spherical display screen-based image playback system and method
Inventor: CHEN GANG
IPC: G09F9/33
Filed: 2018-05-31
Abstract: The invention relates to an image playing system and playing method based on a spherical display screen, and belongs to the field of playing application through a spherical display screen. The system comprises: an input terminal, configured for performing planarization on a virtual reality panoramic image to obtain and output a planar rectangular image with an aspect ratio 2:1; a display controller, communicatively connected to the input terminal, configured for receiving the planar rectangular image with an aspect ratio 2:1 and outputting the planar rectangular image with an aspect ratio 2:1; and a spherical display screen, communicatively connected to the display controller, configured for receiving the planar rectangular image with an aspect ratio 2:1 and displaying the planar rectangular image with an aspect ratio 2:1 on the three-dimensional spherical surface of the spherical display screen. The present invention has the following advantageous effects: it is not necessary for the media server to perform a series of operations, such as image segmentation, geometric correction and image fusion. Rather, images are directly displayed in the spherical display screen simply by snapshotting the image pixels on respective latitude lines on the sphere in a certain manner. Therefore, the image processing procedure is simplified, the processing speed of the spherical display screen is accelerated, and thus the issues of image delay and image frame relay and out of sync between regions may be solved.
